Hello and welcome to our group,may I ask why do you think hammer toe is related to fibro?

This deformity can affect any toe on your foot. It most often affects the second or third toe. Although a hammer toe may be present at birth, it usually develops over time due to arthritis or wearing ill-fitting shoes, such as tight, pointed heels. In most cases, a hammer toe condition is treatable. I have had fibro for over 30 years and have never heard this having any connection to fibro.

My grandma had this and she didn't have fibro so I'm not so sure ... luckily I was never allowed to wear pointy shoe growing up and my feet have turned out ok... well apart from athletes foot and cheesy toe nails lol xx

Yes I have a hammertoe but I have had this as far back into childhood as I can remember. This was way before the fibro. I think I was born with it. It doesn’t bother me the neuropathy trumps the hammertoe.

It is bent and twisted toes . I was born with the condition as was my second child . it also can be caused by I'll fitted footwear . your g.p ought to be able to give further guidance on your personal knowledge etc .
